As the ebb and flow of high tides act along the shoreline, the tides will usually reach up and over the berm (maximum distance the waves can reach under normal non-stormy conditions) and deposit sedimentary grains further in along the shoreline.

The stronger the wind, the longer it blows, and the larger the area of water over which it blows (the fetch), the larger the waves are likely to be.

It is unique in that it explicitly connects the dynamics of open coasts and tidal basins; not only is the interaction between open coasts and tidal basins of basic importance for the evolution of most coastal systems, but describing the similarities between their physical processes is highly instructive as well.
